twitter

User › Followers

Returns the accounts following an X (Twitter) user, each with the handle, display name, bio, follower and tweet counts, privacy flag, and join date.

Use it to sample an account's audience. Page size is set by X, around 70 accounts, and the cursor pages deeper; verification status is not readable here and returns null.

10 credits per call.

Paginates by cursor: see Pagination.
